I have a 9900k, 32gb ram and 4080. I'm thinking about upgrading to 14700k bundle from microcenter. I am also doing similar stuff like you. I do video editing on adobe premiere, adobe after effects and starting on davinci. But right now, I am mostly doing blender, like 3d animation. I need a better CPU to do physics simulations and for better FPS in view port because even with modifiers turned off :p im getting 3FPS in view port when trying to view my own animations lol.

I am thinking about waiting for 15th gen, but now I remember that 15th gen is gonna be VERY pricey. The mother board and CPU will be expensive because its a new socket. The motherboards especially will be expensive for at least 6months to a year, similar to how AM5 boards were expensive until recently.

Excellent point on the board costs. I suspect Arrow Lake will be much more efficient at getting it's performance, but I don't expect the raw performance overall to be that much better than Raptor Lake. Probably not worth waiting the whole year for if you need it now.

Microcenter has a great bundle deal on the 14900K right now. You get the CPU, a great board, and 32GB of DDR5 6000 for $700.

Send it!!!
